Referring to FIG. 1 , a display device 100 may include a display panel 110. The display panel 110 may display a screen.

The display device 100 may include a first long side LS1, a second long side LS2 facing the first long side LS1, a first short side SS1 adjacent to the first long side LS1 and the second long side LS2, and a second short side SS2 facing the first short side SS1. For convenience of explanation, it is illustrated and described that the lengths of the first and second long sides LS1 and LS2 are longer than the lengths of the first and second short sides SS1 and SS2, but it may also be possible that the lengths of the first and second long sides LS1 and LS2 are approximately equal to the lengths of the first and second short sides SS1 and SS2.

A direction parallel to the long side (LS1, LS2) of the display device 100 may be referred to as a first direction DR1 or a left-right direction LR. A direction parallel to the short side (SS1, SS2) of the display device 100 may be referred to as a second direction DR2 or a vertical direction UD.

A direction perpendicular to the long side (LS1, LS2) and the short side (SS1, SS2) of the display device 100 may be referred to as a third direction DR3 or a front-rear direction FR. Here, a direction in which the display panel 110 displays a screen may be referred to as a front, and a direction opposite to this may be referred to as a rear.

Hereinafter, a display panel using an organic light emitting diode (OLED) will be described as an example for the display panel 110, but the display panel 110 applicable to the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

The display panel 110 may form a front surface of the display device 100 and may display to a front. The display panel 110 may divide an image into a plurality of pixels and output an image by adjusting color, brightness, and saturation for each pixel. The display panel 110 may be divided into an active area in which an image is displayed and a de-active area in which an image is not displayed. The display panel 110 may generate light corresponding to a color of red, green, or blue according to a control signal.

Referring to FIG. 2 , a material complexed panel 130 may include a core 131, a front skin 132, and a rear skin 133. The core 131, the front skin 132, and the rear skin 133 may be coupled to each other. The material complexed panel 130 may be referred to as a fiber complexed panel 130, a fiber complexed plate 130, a material complexed plate 130, or a middle frame 130.

The front skin 132 may form a front surface of the material complexed panel 130. The rear skin 133 may form a rear surface of the material complexed panel 130. The front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may include a metal material. For example, the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may include an aluminum Al material. For example, the thickness of the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may be about 0.5 mm. The front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may face each other with respect to the core 131 described later.

The core 131 may be located between the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133. The core 131 may include a fiber. The core 131 may be formed of a composite material. The core 131 may include a main fiber and a binder fiber. The binder fiber may be mixed with the main fiber.

A hot melt sheet may be located between the front skin 132 and the core 131, and the hot melt sheet may be located between the rear skin 133 and the core 131. The hot melt sheet may be a film. For example, the hot melt sheet may be a film made of EVA, acrylic, polyurethane, or the like having a thickness of 50 micrometers or more. After the core 131 is located between the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 by the hot melt sheet, roll lamination may be performed at 190 degrees Celsius for 1 minute or more.

Accordingly, bending rigidity and/or torsional rigidity of the display device may be improved.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4 , the material complexed panel 130 may be manufactured through a process of pressing the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 to the core 131 using a plurality of rollers, and such a process may be referred to as a roll-to-roll (R2R) process.

Referring to FIG. 3 , according to the rotation of a pinch roller Ra performing the function of a drive motor, the front skin 132 may be unwound from a front drum Da, the rear skin 133 may be unwound from a rear drum Db, and the core 131 may be moved through a feeding roller Rd. In addition, a first adhesive 134 a for coupling the front skin 132 to the core 131 may be unwound from a first drum Dc. In addition, a second adhesive 134 b for coupling the rear skin 133 to the core 131 may be unwound from a second drum Dd. In this case, the front skin 132, the first adhesive 134 a, the core 131, the second adhesive 134 b, and the rear skin 133 are laminated in the above order, and may be guided in a direction toward an oven Ov by a guide roller Rc. The adhesive 134 a and 134 b may be the hot melt sheet 134 a and 134 b.

The first and second adhesives 134 a and 134 b are melted in the oven Ov, and each of the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may be coupled to the core 131. For example, the melting point of the first and second adhesives 134 a and 134 b may be about 150° C., and the atmosphere temperature of the oven Ov may be about 200° C. For example, the peel-off force of the first and second adhesives 134 a and 134 b may be about 10 kgf or more.

The front skin 132, the core 131, and the rear skin 133 that have passed through the oven Ov may be guided to a pressing roller Rb and compressed by the pressing roller Rb, according to the rotation of the pinch roller Ra. Accordingly, the mutual coupling force among the front skin 132, the core 131, and the rear skin 133 may be further increased. The front skin 132, the core 131, and the rear skin 133 coupled to each other may pass through the pinch roller Ra and then may be cut by a cutter Ct, so that a material complexed panel 130 having a certain size may be manufactured.

Referring to FIG. 4 , the pressing roller Rb or the pinch roller Ra may contact an outer surface of each of the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133. When the pressing roller Rb or the pinch roller Ra rotates, the material complexed panel 130 may be moved in the length direction (i.e. the left-right direction LR) of the core 131. In this case, the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 may be sequentially coupled from one end to the other end of the core 131 in the length direction of the core 131.

In addition, the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 of the material complexed panel 130 may be formed to be flat. That is, as the rear surface of the rear skin 133 forming the rear surface of the display device 100 is formed to be flat, it may be easy to perform additional operations such as painting or attaching sheet paper on the rear surface of the rear skin 133 for an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Meanwhile, in addition to forming the front skin 132 and the rear skin 133 to be flat through the R2R process described above with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 , it is also possible to couple the core 131, the front skin 132, and the rear skin 133 through a process of stacking the front skin 132, the core 131, and the rear skin 133 sequentially and then coupling them.

Referring to FIG. 5 , the material complexed panel 130 may include a flat plate part 130P, a receiving part 137, and an outer part 135.
